    Removing a Gas Tank

    I finally got the Bondo and paint to redo my SX gas tank, and I am having trouble removing it. I don't know how to get up in there to remove the bolts to take it off. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    it should just have one screw right under the seat at the top back part of the tank. Take that screw out and the gas tank should wiggle right out

    yep. remove seat and rear plastic.

    remove 10mm screw.

    remove fuel line. ( tip : Start it and run it with the gas off for a minute.. to empty the line before you pull it.. no mess ! )

    pull back and out !
